105. A horse may be declared in a claiming race only where the owner or the owner’s agent files with the race secretary or sends him a facsimile, before the closing time for declarations, a duly signed authorization showing the amount for which the horse may be claimed.
For the purposes of this section, a lessee is not an owner.
Where a horse is owned by more than one person, all of those persons shall sign that authorization and the agent’s mandate, where applicable.
